Beverly Hills Trust Appraisals — FAQ

Answers to your most common questions on fiduciary-grade real estate valuations—serving Trousdale Estates, The Flats, North of Sunset, and beyond.

What is a trust appraisal?

A trust appraisal determines the fair market value of property held within a trust for fiduciary accounting, estate tax, or legal review. Our USPAP‑compliant reports meet IRS and California Probate Code §4000 criteria, protecting all parties.

When is a date‑of‑death (DOD) appraisal required?

The IRS and courts require a DOD appraisal for Form 706, inheritance tax, or probate. Value is set as of the decedent’s date of passing, ensuring a correct “step‑up in basis” for estate tax and distribution.

How long does a Beverly Hills trust appraisal take?

Most luxury estates are inspected and reported in 5–7 business days. Gated or complex trusts may take longer for access/documentation. Rush and deadline service is available for attorneys and fiduciaries.

Who pays for the appraisal?

The trust usually pays for the USPAP appraisal as an approved expense. Cost sharing is possible if the trust document or estate plan allows. The fee is typically deductible under current IRS rules for fiduciary services.

What documents should a trustee provide?

Collect the trust agreement, grant deed, APN, improvement or permit records, past appraisals, and access instructions. For IRS or court-facing reports, accountant or legal contact info is helpful.

Can an attorney or CPA request the appraisal?

Absolutely. Legal and fiduciary professionals frequently order and direct appraisals on behalf of trustees or beneficiaries. Reports are issued to the trust, court representative, or legal office as requested.

Is a trust appraisal the same as probate or estate valuation?

Trust appraisals are confidential, conducted for fiduciary/court use and not filed in public record. Probate appraisals are often public and tied to a court case. Both require credentialed appraisers; trust appraisals provide audit resilience.

What factors influence appraised value in Beverly Hills?

Appraised values reflect view corridor, lot usability, architectural pedigree, renovation quality, and “micro‑market” Beverly Hills segmentation—north or south of Sunset, proximity to The Flats, and more. Each report leverages only hyper-local comps.
